It’s not enough, the math doesn’t make sense. 18 years of foods, diapers, creches, outings, gifts, hobbies, clothes, housing and education? Just to produce a another slave for profit? Nope. Get kittens or puppies if you can afford them. If not, look at pics.
Talk for yourself. When you’re healthy AND lucky, yes life in the the West is maybe easy. But the minute you get disabled, you’re being systematically pushed into poverty. And despite saying free healthcare to pester Americans, we all know it’s not ‘free.’
The latest dentist I called asked me to transfer 400€ before I even got an appointment. So stop pushing this narrative that life’s too easy. Maybe for you.
TIL I’m ALL 4B’s.
I live in Europe: rice, beans, lentils, meat and vegetables are way too expensive here. Eggs were okay until the pandemic hit and prices went up. Now they’ve come down a little and I can afford them again. That and cheese is my stock now. Pasta is okay, but I can’t eat much of it every day because it really fattens me up.
Talk for yourself. With my luck, they’ll find a way to prolong my life to 120 years.
At this point, I don’t care anymore. We’re effed anyway, there is no future for us… Even when aliens landed and took over the world it wouldn’t surprise me. Maybe they’ll do a better job.
Even thrifting is expensive now. The truth is, there’s nowhere to cut and that’s why it’s hurting so many people.
Rice is also expensive. My go to is bread and butter/margarine.
I guess we have to reinvent the guillotine, version 2024. History will talk about let them eat cornflakes. It’s so ridiculous because cornflakes here is more expensive than a loaf of bread.
Fair enough. I guess keep up the fight and I wish you the best. Thanks for giving us insight.
I’m so conflicted. But how would you want society to treat you? And by you, I mean people that haven’t raped, molested or groomed a child, but are struggling with inappropriate feelings towards them?
I have the same 2 cats. Yesterday I was bitching about them to my niece. Saying they got so bad, it’s like I’m the pet and they’re the owners.
They really push me around and make me do whatever they want. The tuxedo even follows me around when I’m cleaning and grumbles and shouts when their 3 litter boxes aren’t cleaned 3 times a day. There’s no use getting stricter, it’s 2 against 1 and I don’t have a fluffy belly to trick them.
I want the same advice, but for cat parents without kids.
He’s grooming your mom and now your mom is ‘grooming’/readying her entire family, so he can run away from his situation in his home country and start again. The question is this: why is he running away? He has a roof over his head, he’s an adult, his aunt is forcing him to study so he can get a decent job?
Sorry this is ridiculous, he just thinks he wants an easier life and sees your mom as a way to get it. If he gets into your home, he won’t be getting a job, he’ll be playing games all day and eating food and doing nothing. Because that’s what he wants, to be taken care of.
I’m all for giving people opportunities, but this guy has no plan, beyond living with your mom. Also, again, he’s not a ‘kid.’ He’s an adult, let him figure things out for himself, or else he’ll always look for the easiest solutions and be a major problem for your family. Yes, he’s scamming your mom. Show her alle these responses and tell her to grow up and protect her kids lika an adult should do.
Take a tortilla wrap, put a slice of gouda young cheese in it, wrap like a wrap, 40 seconds in microwave et voila! Hot pocket and filling meal.
Yes, let’s attack the ONLY humanitarian agency that tries to do some good so their shitty opinions of Israel’s behaviour towards Palestinian civilians, patients, journalists and aid workers isn’t so highlighted in the world press anymore.
God, how stupid do you think people are?
Oh shut up with your insinuations. If a guy with a gun tells you to treat someone, you do it. As if Palestinians have gotten another choice by Israeli governance. You act as if these people were free before the attacks lol. As if they were living in the land of milk and honey, as if their opinions mattered…
NO. It wasn’t the IDF that saved them. They were so tone-deaf that when the doctors said premature babies were dying because of lack of fuel to generate the incubators, they brought over some incubators knowing there was no electricity to use them… Plain Evil and just another PR stunt for the IDF.
** The evacuation was organized by the World Health Organization and the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. **
*Just a day earlier, a joint United Nations humanitarian assessment team, led by the WHO, entered Al-Shifa to see first-hand the dire circumstances of the facility, the groups said.
They found piles of medical and solid waste filling the crowded corridors of Gaza’s largest hospital, according to the WHO. The team saw a mass grave by the hospital’s entrance and was told at least 80 bodies were lying there, the WHO said.
This team’s trip only lasted an hour and was “deconflicted” with Israel’s military to ensure safe passage, the group said.
In that time, they found that several patients have died in the previous two to three days due to medical services shutting down in the facility, according to the WHO. And now there are just 25 health workers for the 291 remaining patients. The premature babies were considered to be in “extremely critical condition,” the WHO said.*

So NO, the IDF didn’t do anything for a single patient in that hospital. But, you know, whatever makes you sleep at night.
I hope his idea is not to just plop the two communities together, but also integrate them. I listened to a podcast about a Muslim woman who married a Gazan Palestinian and went to live there eventually. She said they were very different from what she was used to. She worked in healthcare, had difficulty understanding their accent and just fitting in. Those people were under an embargo for years, so that explains the stagnation of everything.
Her grandmother was Palestinians, but I can’t remember if she grew up in the West Bank or Saudi Arabia.
See me talking like it will ever happen…
I swear these people just want war. How do you think Putin’s going to react to that? France and Germany have been pushing too hard for my liking to beef up weapons manufacturing. It’s as if someone told them war=profits and rebuilding afterwards=profits and a nice way to get rid of an entire generation of problems.
Maybe someone should thell them the current generation isn’t ready to mindlessly throw their lives away for these aholes. Or you know do your effing job and be a diplomat?
